Davido, an Afrobeats artist, has spoken out about his relationship with embattled Nigerian fraudster and socialite Ramon Abbas, often known as Hushpuppi.

Davido stated that, even though they were friends, he was unaware of of his fraudulent activities.

In a recent podcast interview, the singer expressed solidarity with Hushpuppi, who is presently serving a jail sentence in the United States, and promised that he will be released soon.

The 30 Billion Gang boss claimed that the hardship in Nigeria was one of the factors influencing people to do illegal businesses to escape poverty.

He said, “Hushpuppi is coming out soon. He lived life. To me, it is not worth it to be locked up. But let me not make excuses for them [fraudsters]. Some people are happy to ball for five years and that is it.

“In Nigeria, there is a kind of hardship you would face and you will be like, you know what? Let me ball for two years then I am good.

“People are like that. My prayers go out to him [Hushpuppi]. He was my friend. I just see him around, I never really knew what he was doing. But he lived a good life.”
